- StarsNatsuki HanaeMike McFarlandDarius Marquis JohnsonIn a city which should be familiar, there is the feeling of something a little different.9/10, Episode 4 bored me, don't care about addiction to a gacha game. Rest of the show terrific, reveal in final ep really works though the final scene is something I'm not sure if I like or not. Very entertaining show and best of 2021 for me.
- StarsJessie James GrelleBryce PapenbrookTrina NishimuraAfter his hometown is destroyed and is traumatized, young Eren Jaeger vows to cleanse the earth of the giant humanoid Titans that have brought humanity to the brink of extinction.9/10, Final Season Pt 1. While the new characters didn't grab me when they intermingle with the old a great show appears. Hate the new personality of Eren though. That and Gabi. Keeps this from being perfect.
- CreatorTappei NagatsukiEiji UmeharaStarsAtsumi TanezakiJun FukuyamaCristina ValenzuelaThe female looking and first autonomous AI named Diva is created for one mission to make everyone happy by singing. Shortly Diva is confronted by an unknown "program" from the future with objective to make Diva join him and destroy AIs.8/10, Can't quite get Vivy to a 9 but I really enjoyed Vivy as a character and her journey though the years and her various missions. Not sure it entirely makes sense as a whole as time travel often as trouble with but I can't work up getting upset about it. Very fun show.
- StarsSuzie YeungBilly KametzMaureen PriceThe Republic of San Magnolia is at war with its neighboring country, the Empire of Giad. Both sides use unmanned drones to conduct a "war without casualties". The story follows Lena as she commands a squad of drones called the 86.8/10, 86 has some really hard hitting moments amid exiciting action and engaging characters. Dark themes manage to have some hint of light as well.
- StarsHaruka TomatsuKôki UchiyamaSeiichiro YamashitaTwo very different people - an academically successful schoolgirl and a quiet loser schoolboy - meet and develop a friendship.8/10, It is a good accompaniment to the manga but after reading it this isn't up to source material, still enjoyable but not to its level. Mid 8/10 stuff but manga a 9 as the anime skips so much.
- StarsZeno RobinsonAlejandro SaabSuzie YeungUsing superpowers to enter their clientele's photos one by one, Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang take their work seriously at "Time Photo Studio," a small photography shop set in the backdrop of a modern metropolis.8/10. Started off rocky in first half, second half really soared though, cliffhanger end.
- StarsChikahiro KobayashiJonah ScottLara Jill MillerIn a world of anthropomorphic animals, a reclusive wolf's complicated relationship with a kindly rabbit is tested by a classmate's murder, a charismatic deer's influence, and his own burgeoning predatory instincts.8.0/10. 2nd season. Was about as good as the 1st season but last couple of eps lost me. Will keep as an 8.
- CreatorRifujin Na MagonoteStarsYumi UchiyamaTomokazu SugitaAmber Lee ConnorsA 34-year-old underachiever gets run over by a bus, but his story isn't over. Reincarnated as an infant, he'll embark on an epic adventure.7/10, Season 1 Part 2. I am trying to ignore Rudy and his pedo ways I really am but it is such a big part of what this show is. If it wasn't so prominent I might be able to say that I really enjoy the show now. As it is... its fine. Lifted my self imposed boycott of this show and try and watch again and it is better than Part 1. I suppose I'll grit my teeth and give this a 7, might have gotten up to a 9 if only the disgusting perv stuff wasn't here. Show improved that much for me but it has that terrible "BUT" in there that keeps it from getting that score.
- StarsSora AmamiyaKaede HondoAyane SakuraShe can see dead people... she just chooses to ignore them. That's Miko's plan anyway, with horrifying (and sometimes hilarious) results.7/10, Second half better than first half, a plot starts to develop then, would have been more enjoyable without the fanservice especially heavy in earlier eps. Especially annoying as its thrown in there when a spooky scene is taking place and mood shattered with closeups to her body for lewdness. So frustrating. Also wish Yuria was for more than comedy, maybe if a second season is made she'll do more.
- StarsYoshimasa HosoyaMichiyo MuraseShirô SaitôJunk Dog, an underground fighter with the alias of "Gearless Joe" sets out to join the worlds most prestigious mecha boxing championship, Megalonia.7/10, Season 2. Can get to 7 I suppose, didn't really feel anything, too many recycled plot elements from first season and the first third of this one almost felt like a separate mini arc from rest of story. Its okay but.... ehhhh.
- StarsYûsuke KobayashiSean ChiplockKayli MillsAfter being suddenly transported to another world, Subaru Natsuki and his new female partner are brutally murdered. However, Subaru awakens to a familiar scene, meeting the same girl again. The day begins to mysteriously repeat itself.7/10, 2nd Season Pt 2. Emilia gains a little power and confidence but hasn't done anything with these yet. Subaru more annoying again with eye rolling soliloquies. Ram and Roswaal? Disgusting. Show was good at times but irritating at others. Don't see why this series is so well rated. Bordering 7 and 6 as when its good it really is good. Shame has other crap weighing it down.
- StarsAoi KogaGakuto KajiwaraRie MurakawaAn elite and aloof schoolgirl is in fact severely withdrawn and anxious about communicating with others. An ordinary schoolboy befriends her and helps her to open up and talk with people.7.0/10, Can get this to a flat 7 I suppose. Komi can be charming certainly but not all the situations work for me and I dislike all the supporting cast.
- StarsZeno RobinsonStephen FuAlexis TiptonA human wields a magic book that can cure vampires of their bloodlust, and sets out to find vampires to cure with the book.6/10, Will rate a high 6 I guess. Has its moments but the comedy falls on its face too often and the "romance" is just cringe. Fanservice mainly I suppose, bloodsucking being erotic and all. Doubt I'll watch s2.
- StarsSumire UesakaDaiki YamashitaKimberley Anne CampbellHigh schooler Hayase Nagatoro loves to spend her free time doing one thing, and that is to bully her Senpai. After Nagatoro and her friends stumble upon the aspiring artist's drawings, they find enjoyment in mercilessly bullying the timid Senpai.6/10, Throwaway teasing comedy that is popular these past few years. This one a bit more edgy than others and Nagatoro self owns half the time. Has its moments among the bland and cringe.
- CreatorSosuke TokaStarsHinata MinamiAyumu MuraseSungWon ChoThe people of the kingdom look down on the young Prince Bojji, who can neither hear nor speak. They call him "The Useless Prince" while jeering at his supposed foolishness.6/10, Bojji/Kage/Hiling good characters, story and everyone else not so much, want to spill the tea as to why but spoilers are no-no. Disappointing watch from what started out with great promise.
- StarsDaiki YamashitaJustin BrinerNobuhiko OkamotoA superhero-admiring boy enrolls in a prestigious hero academy and learns what it really means to be a hero, after the strongest superhero grants him his own powers.6/10, Season 5. Barely gets this 6 rating though. The matches are fine on their own and it is school show so training is to be expected I guess but given the stakes going on in the outside world this just feels like a waste of time, stretching out the story with unnecessary episodes. Second half better but still too often cut up with flashbacks and boring student stuff. Villains much more interesting which is a problem as this is about the heroes. Who are boring.
- CreatorSômatôStarsDani ChambersYû SasaharaEmi LoIn a grandiose mansion, a young cheerful living doll begins to serve her shadow mistress, only to find out through their bonding that things are not what they appear to be.5/10, Boring to mediocre by the second half with a whimper of an ending. Had interesting idea but never used it well.
- CreatorShingo NatsumeStarsAoi YûkiChristopher WehkampSiddhartha MinhasA group of students on summer vacation find themselves transported to another dimension and granted superpowers to survive there.5/10, A dull meandering mess with characters I cared nothing about.
- CreatorSatoru YamaguchiStarsMaaya UchidaTetsuya KakiharaShouta AoiA young girl dies and is reincarnated into a video game. But when she finds out that her role is the villainess destined for doom, she takes measures to change the game and avoid that fate.5/10, Season 2. Was hoping for improvement from S1 but no luck. Since the premise was solved in the first season there really is nowhere to go. Now its just stuck in place mostly with pointless reverse harem antics with a couple of kidnappings thrown in but overall this second season was boring, goes nowhere and if its possible Caterina is even dumber and more bubbly than before. Ends suggesting going back to square one with more doom flags. Done with this.
- CreatorShinji NojimaStarsKanata AikawaYûya UchidaHiroki TakahashiWhile on a midnight stroll, a girl named Ai picks up an egg. A voice coaxes her: "If you want to change the future, you only need to choose now. Now, believe in yourself and break the egg." What awaits Ai after the breaking of the egg?4/10. Show really stretching for greatness and not reaching it. Relying on tears and tragedy and not enough for me. Overall story is rather silly afterall. Would have been a halfway decent throway show but the end episode was crap. Half recap and half nonsense that doesn't lead to an actual conclusion, only thing that kind of saved it was animation but not enough. Would have gotten flat 7 without that terrible ending but alas it has that terrible end.
- CreatorRifujin Na MagonoteStarsYumi UchiyamaTomokazu SugitaAmber Lee ConnorsA 34-year-old underachiever gets run over by a bus, but his story isn't over. Reincarnated as an infant, he'll embark on an epic adventure.4/10, Season 1 Part 1. Might have this at a low 7 if it wasn't for the pedo s**ual assault garbage. Without that garbage this seems to be a standard fantasy isekai anime with good animation and meh story. Unfortunately the main personality trait of Rudi is being a pervert and this is something that really brings a show down especially with it being the main character.
